Background Story of this 1970 Volkswagen Beetle

Overview of 1970 Volkswagen Beetle For Sale by Owner

A look around the news nowadays, and one thing is certain: unrest and uncertainty brew daily as humans do not see eye to eye. While the Volkswagen of today is an automotive giant keeping up with modern trends, that wasn’t always the case. In the past, the German manufacturer produced mechanical representations of peace, love, and happiness—and none embodied that spirit more than the Volkswagen Beetle. Present today is this lovely 1970 Volkswagen Beetle, a classic beauty that exudes timeless charm. Finished in light blue and retaining its original simplicity, this example stands out with a reported 1,833 miles on the clock, making it a rare, low-mileage survivor. With its unmistakable shape, air-cooled flat-four engine, and analog driving experience, this Beetle offers a nostalgic return to an era when the road ahead was all about freedom and good vibes.

Exterior and Interior

How does one go about being a machine that signifies peace, love, and harmony? The Volkswagen Beetle's design served as a blueprint for traveling far and wide while spreading the message of peace. Taking that communication material up a notch is a lovely light blue exterior on this 1970 Volkswagen Beetle. A walk around this classic beauty reveals all its exterior components in excellent shape. The current owner reports aftermarket rubber components and a recent exterior refresh, and there is also an external sun visor to keep you shaded on those summer drives. For wheels, you find a set of steel wheels finished in black, complete with Volkswagen hubcaps.  Trimming down the excess makes for a focused drive experience; this is what the Volkswagen Beetle does best. Step into the black interior of this 1970 Volkswagen Beetle, and what you are greeted with is a driving experience that's void of modernity, and that's a good thing, really. You have a Wolfsburg steering wheel giving you a taste of driver feel, a simple factory dashboard showing this car's vitals, and a reported aftermarket bluetooth stereo providing your tunes and marking this car's only interior upgrade. 

Engine

In the rear lies a 1.6L air-cooled flat-four, running a single-barrel Solex carburetor and manual choke. Known for its reliability and simplicity, the engine is mated to a 4-speed manual transmission that delivers a true analog driving feel. The rear-mounted layout offers unique weight distribution, while the torsion-bar suspension provides a soft, floaty ride consistent with vintage Volkswagens. This example features upgradd front disc brakes. The engine bay remains largely stock, with visible signs of age and authenticity, including the original generator setup, oil bath air cleaner, and mechanical fuel pump.

1972 Volkswagen Beetle

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$20,999
SOLD

The Volkswagen Beetle is one of those machines whose production numbers are not in the thousands but in the 6-digit range. While it has a long production run across multiple formats, finding a clean example has become more challenging. With clean examples tucked away in collections and most falling prey to age and the aftermarket scene, finding a clean, factory example is a dream for many who want to explore the world of classic Volkswagen charm. Present today is now considered a rare bird and looks like this 1972 Volkswagen Beetle. This clean example is reported to have just 135,000 miles on it over its 50+ year life. Better yet, this machine is also reported to have been garaged or under a carport its entire life to maintain its clean looks. The fun doesn't stop there for those seeking originality; the machines' maintenance is also reported to preserve their original specifications. Included in the sale are a tow bar and lights connector in excellent condition, along with the original owner's manual.

1981 Mercedes-Benz 380SL

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$25,999

The 1981 Mercedes-Benz 380SL represents the later years of the iconic R107 generation, a model celebrated for its blend of classic roadster styling, V8 refinement, and legendary Mercedes-Benz build quality. Designed as a true grand touring convertible rather than an outright sports car, the 380SL emphasizes comfort, durability, and effortless cruising. As a factory U.S.-spec example, this car was originally built to meet federal regulations, making it a proper North American-market vehicle rather than a grey-market import. Today, the R107 remains one of the most recognizable and enduring SL models, valued for its timeless design and long-term collectability.

1965 Cadillac DeVille

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$39,999

We all loved the 101 Dalmatians movie, and one of the most prominent characters in it was the villain, Cruella de Vil. That has nothing to do with this car, but her name sure does remind us of it. Say hello to the 1965 Cadillac Coupe Deville, the luxurious land yacht that won the hearts of the 1960s. This model name was used by Cadillac over eight generations. It was derived from the French de la Ville or de Ville, meaning "of the town". What we have here is a 1965 Cadillac Coupe Deville that belongs to the third generation. It saw a major redesign that sets it apart from its predecessors. With just 80,631 miles on its odometer, this beauty is located in Elgin, South Carolina.

1964 Ford Mustang

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,200

Now here’s a truly iconic classic car for someone to catch! This 1964 Ford Mustang Hardtop comes to you from Savannah, Georgia with just 305 miles after a thorough makeover. It’s got a nice 289ci V8 under the hood and represents the very first year of production for Ford’s iconic pony car that endures to this day!

So if you want a true American classic hero that’s ready for action and will only appreciate in value as time passes, pick this car without a second thought.
